Torture Versus Freedom - (USA)
(WWII-era poster on torture.) (There are times I feel like a broken record on torture and human rights abuses. This is something of a recap post borrowing somewhat from earlier pieces .) Defending torture insistently means one’s moral compass is pointing straight down to hell. I continue to believe it’s essential to confront the dangerous and evil lie that torture “works” and that we’re all going to die if we respect human rights, follow the law, or dare to investigate - let alone p

Gates of Vienna News Feed 11/29/2008 - (USA)
Besides the latest from Mumbai, the most interesting news tonight concerns the BNP. The Labour government’s policy of overt persecution towards the BNP and other dissenters has backfired, and the BNP is gaining in strength. There are a couple of reports below about yesterday’s BNP demonstration in Liverpool, which was mounted as a response to the arrest of three party members for handing out leaflets.Thanks to C. Cantoni, Conservative Swede, Diana West, Gaia, GLT, Insubria, JD, Paul Green, Steen

The Culture of Death - A phrase, a phase or the End of Days? - (USA)
http://canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/13531 By Rev. Michael Bresciani Saturday, August 8, 2009 When someone is found dying every thing suddenly changes, no words are weighed, but urgent commands are given, calls go out for help and those who have life saving skills spring into action quite unhindered by those standing by. What if it is a nation that is dying? Who is responding, who is helping, let’s see? On a sinking ship when all hope is lost order yet prevails. The commonly acce

Season Finale: Parks and Recreation – “Rock Show” - (USA)
“Rock Show” May 14th, 2009 When The Office ended its six-episode first season, it really didn’t have anything to wrap up or even celebrate: “Hot Girl,” the season finale, was noteworthy for its first real sense of Pam’s jealousy of Jim dating anyone, but it was just another episode of the series in a lot of ways. Since Parks and Recreation is not only from the same creative minds but is also getting exactly the same six-episode first season leading into a normal second one, it’s hard no

One Tough Marine - (USA)
Boots on the Ground by Chuck Holton November 17, 2008 They should have killed him while they had the chance. Marine Corporal Garrett Jones is back in combat, and he’s mad as…well, you get the picture. While on patrol with his unit, the 2/7 Marine Regiment in Iraq a little over a year ago, Cpl Jones remembers a flash and a cloud of smoke. He was thrown through the air into a sewage canal. After that, things got fuzzy. When he awoke, a chaplain informed him he’d lost his leg above the knee.

Night Glare: Billy Lee Riley - (USA)
I was saddened by the news that my old friend and business colleague Billy Lee Riley had just passed away from cancer at age 75 . I am sorry it took Billy’s passing to inspire me to write this long overdue account of our friendship, but his passing on August 2 was overlooked by most in this summer which has claimed so many people. Go on iTunes and buy “Red Hot” or “Flying Saucer Rock and Roll” by Billy Lee Riley and see if you can tell where raw, high energy punk music reared it’s ugly, but

Well, we survived Black Friday and now the full-court press is on for Christmas! For me, this is the time of year when I start avoiding stores and try to ignore all that’s going on. If the economy depended on me for consumption, it would tank even more…I don’t shop! Quick update on the stray dog…I think she/he was around a few weeks ago, but after I got my cam set up and experimented with the location of the food/water dishes and saw that everything disappeared except the big cookie treats, it

I began my devotion to processing and keeping informed on current national and international events years ago with the daily watching of CBS news with Walter Cronkite, the most trusted reporter in the United States during his his reign. I believed, as others did, that his understanding and reporting of the news could be accepted as truth. In the last two years, I gathered an analyzed the daily news from MSNBC. As if addicted, I find myself anticipating this daily newscast, which comes in on Ch

Daily News comments on Steve Levy’s anti-immigrant joke - (USA)
KW: Democratic Party politician Steve Levy is the Suffolk County Executive. Under his tenure, there have been many proposals and many controversies about getting tough on the immigration issue. In 2007, the Green Party of Suffolk County ran a candidate against Steve Levy, largely as a way to reject Steve Levy’s anti-immigrant stances and rhetoric. Steve Levy was re-elected as County Executive in 2007. Though, with current events–including the murder of immigrant Marcelo Lucero by teenagers who

Seeds of Truth - (USA)
Dissident voiceby Sheila Samples / May 13th, 2009 While ITNT has shown that bees are affected by electropollution , the case for pesticides has been hurled across the Mainstream media in recent documentaries and articles. Much of the Alternative media too seem to have concluded that the problem has been solved. Yet when we first investigated CCD we were struck by how beekeepers reported that pesticides caused piles of dead bodies outside the hive. This is not the case with CCD. This Spanish st
